Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) sounded off on the Trans-Pacific Partnership and accused mainstream media of not covering what could be one of the biggest trade agreements in history. "The major television networks are not covering the TPP. Incredible as it may sound, this trade agreement--the largest trade agreement in the history of the United States of America--has received virtually no coverage, no coverage, on the major networks," Sanders said from the Senate floor on Thursday. TPP is a trade deal being negotiated between the U.S., Canada and ten other Asia-Pacific nations, covering about 40 percent of the global economy. |
